Two Hours Later:

Suzy had guided the ship to a clearing in the Everfree. Twilight was incredibly inquisitive about the ship, Suzy being the one to answer her questions as Einuli was still silent.

“Any more questions?” Suzy asked.

“No!” Twilight smiled, unbuckling herself and standing as the decent ramp extended. Einuli followed suit, about to walk out.

“Einuli… I’m sorry.” Suzy said, glancing to him. The raptor paused, turning to look at her. “I really am… I shouldn’t have gone off on you… You… lost everything and… if you’re happy with these ponies… then I’ll leave it be. I don’t want you to… be alone. Not after how broken we found you, that was… absolutely horrible.”

Einuli was quiet for a little while longer, “I… can’t rightly be mad at you. I know you’re trying to watch my back… trying to keep me sane and safe from harm but… I can’t ever learn if I don’t fall.” He sighed, “If I don’t get hurt I can’t grow stronger.”

“I’ll join you guys soon. I need to make sure this little birdy doesn’t get it’s wings clipped.” Suzy smiled, hugging Einuli. “Just still, be careful. I doubt every creature on this planet will take an alien so kindly. Even a fluffy little one.”

“I will. I doubt they’ll try anything with Twilight around though.” Einuli chuckled, “I’ll see you soon!” He ran out of the aircraft, quickly finding Twilight.

“Is Suzy coming?” She inquired.

“She’ll join us in town. We’re free to go ahead of her!” He replied smiling up at her.

“Great! I can’t wait for you to see Ponyville, just follow me!”

Several minutes later:

“We’re here!” Twilight said happily as she and Einuli walked into town. The small space raptor receiving many curious and odd stares from the large amount of ponies in the center of town. Einuli looked around at the various building he could see as they passed them. He noticed that a vast majority of the ponies seemed more curious than scared of him.

Though he did notice the odd hateful glare he received, and he chose to ignore those. “This is all so great!” He looked back to Twilight who seemed to not really care about how other ponies were viewing her new friend.

“I haven’t even started with giving you a tour! But, for now that can wait, I’ll take you to my castle.” Twilight grabbed his hand and tugged him along, leading him to her massive crystal castle. “Here we are!” Twilight grinned, the guards staring wide-eyed at the alien as he entered with her.

She lead him to the throne room, “You just wait right here! I’m going to go grab Spike I’m sure he’d love to meet you!” She pushed him down into a chair and ran off to locate her friend and assistant.

As if on cue a blue light appeared before Einuli and Suzy teleported into the castle.

“Hi!” Einuli smiled and waved.

Suzy however was in awe as the huge crystal building she was in. “Oh my god…” She mumbled.

“It’s really amazing what they’ve done! They’re all really, really smart!” Einuli said, motioning for Suzy to sit down. The human sat down beside Einuli, looking over the crystal map on the table before them.

“What… even… how…” She muttered. The marine settled back, the curiosity clear on her face. Neither had ever seen anything like that, she set her weapon down and the two patiently waited for Twilight to come down with Spike.

Meanwhile:

Twilight located Spike up in his room. The second he saw her, Twilight found herself wrapped in a hug.

“You’re safe!” Spike said happily, tears nearly in his eyes.

“Of course I am!” Twilight smiled hugging him back. “Why wouldn’t I be?”

“Celestia sent me a letter! She said there’s something more dangerous than even Tirek… she wanted me to make sure Ponyville remained safe… I thought something had happened to you, I hadn’t heard anything from you or any of the girls since you all went to Canterlot to investigate that thing you saw…” Spike admitted. “Plus after the Changeling attack a few weeks ago… it’s just all so scary when you leave.”

“Spike… I’m perfectly fine, but really, thank you for worrying.” Twilight’s smile grew as she squeezed the dragon tighter, he was now nearly as tall as her. But to each other they were still brother and sister, nothing could possibly change that. “Well, on a brighter note, I have two creatures I want you to meet. But… please don’t freak out, neither are from Equus.”

“I’ve met plenty of other races, something that isn’t a po- Wait, what do you mean… not from Equus… isn’t that… doesn’t that mean…” Spike choked, his eyes widening.

“Yes. They’re aliens. There’s more and they’re all friendly. But for now, it’s only Einuli and Suzy down here.” Twilight nodded, pulling him towards the door.

“Where are they!?!?” Spike inquired.

“In the throne roo-”

Spike bolted out of the room, leaving Twilight dumbfounded. The alicorn teleported herself down to the throne room. Spike having somehow beat her there. Einuli and Suzy were staring in just as much awe at Spike as he was them.

“Soooo coool!” Spike nearly squeed.

“A… a fucking dragon… holy…” Suzy muttered, noticing instantly how he didn’t have any clothes on, and honestly despite the species difference she thought his muscled chest… his arms… hell he could have been this world’s version of a marine. He was hot. But she shook that thought from her mind, not wanting to run head first into something so life changing so quickly. Sleeping with an alien? Hell, falling in love with one you didn’t know much about? That’s insane. But, just looking at the curious and obviously interesting dragon was attracting her more and more.

“Awesome! It’s so sweet you can speak Equish! That makes this all the better!” Spike said giddily plopping down in a chair across from Suzy. “I’m Spike it’s nice to meet you!”

“I’m… Suzy. It’s nice to meet you too.” Suzy responded.

“I’m Einuli!” Einuli waved.

“How’d you all get here? Where’s your ship? Can I see it? Can I see some of the things you use? What do you two do?” Spike began to fire off questions.

“I got here on a biodome ship.” Einuli said. “Both our ships are in orbit around the planet.”

“I got here on a Thirala Class Cruiser named Avenged Sevenfold.” Suzy responded. “I’m sure you can see both out ships eventually, I’d lo- like to show them to you myself.”

“Awesome!” Spike cheered.

“And later I can show you some of my tech. I… really do whatever.” Einuli added.

“I’m an Ex-marine. After Earth fell, I sorta joined a crew and began exploring the universe. It’s been fun.” Suzy smiled.

“Woah, hey… uuh, Suzy.” Spike started. Twilight and Suzy already knowing what the adult dragon was about to ask.

“Sure! It’d be fun, plus you could show me around town.” Suzy nodded, Spike’s smile grew so wide it looked like it hurt.

“YAY! Come on, I’ll show you to some of my favorite spots!” Spike leaped over the table, scaring Einuli and Suzy as the marine was dragged out of the throne room, leaving Twilight and Einuli alone. Twilight was just left laughing.

“Oooh, those two are going to be great friends.” She chuckled, looking at Einuli. “Now, there’s another pony I want you to meet… She’s my student, and I think it’d be really nice for you two to get to know each other. Just follow me! I’m sure it won’t be too hard to find her.” She stood up, Einuli following suit and walking right beside her.

Twilight lead him right up to Starlight’s bedroom, “Just wait out here, I’ll make sure she’s ready to meet you.” She said, motioning Einuli to stand beside some of the guards. Both of whom were in awe at the alien. “Starlight?” She called softly as she knocked on the door. The unicorn on the other side was quick and eager to call back.

“Twilight! Come in!”

Twilight opened the door and slipped inside, seeing her friend smiling widely as she sat up from her bed. The two mares hugged and Twilight sat down beside Starlight. “It's great to see you're okay! Spike had me so worried, why did Celestia request we double our active duty guards? And increase patrols?”

“There's a serious threat. A new friend of mine suggested we do so, since magic can stop their weapons. So, we're taking his advice.” Twilight explained.

“Wait… new friend, one that knows what the threat is?” Starlight said hesitantly.

“Yes! They're after him since he's been working on something to counter their bio weapon.” Twilight continued, “I wanted you to meet him, he's small fluffy and adorable when he isn't angry or showing off his intelligence.”

“What…”

“He’s right outside.”
